Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of dynamic impact testing under inertial loads, specifically to an impact equivalent test method based on energy accumulation, which is suitable for simulating dynamic impact environments under two different inertial loads and achieving accurate simulation of extreme overload environments. Background Technology
[0002] The pulse duration of overload impacts can range from tens of microseconds to tens of milliseconds. The factors causing system failure due to impact are not only related to the impact overload amplitude but also closely related to the acceleration pulse width. Real-time testing of systems under long-pulse-width impacts is the most direct and effective method for evaluating their performance. However, real-time testing is complex and expensive. Conventional low-cost simulation methods can simulate impact overload environments to some extent, but the pulse width of the resulting impact overload pulses typically does not exceed 100 μs.
[0003] Due to the mismatch in impact pulse widths, significant differences exist in test results across various overload conditions. Therefore, it is necessary to establish equivalent models and methods for long / short pulse width impact loads. However, currently proposed strain equivalence principles rely heavily on experimental and simulation data, making them overly empirical and difficult to generalize. Therefore, there is an urgent need to develop a widely applicable impact equivalence method based on impact dynamics theory for selecting the inertial load parameters required in dynamic impact environments, thereby achieving accurate simulation of extreme overload environments.
